The Emperor’s Heart is Rippling

    045

    In the past few days, the weather has been getting hot, and the Queen Mother Meng could not bear to move to Taiye Pool to escape the heat. I have seen Xiao Ze.

    In the Chongwen Hall, Lu Wan slumped on the seat listlessly, shouting Chanyi: "Chanyi, you have to count how many days you have left for field vacation, I'm getting too hot."

    Chanyi wiped the fine sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, drank a sip of herbal tea, and shook it lightly with the fan, and said, "It's already April, and it will be good for another month."

      She folded her arms and bent the blue half of her arms, and said rather resentfully: "Don't mention Tianjie to me, all of you Tianjiu have already thought about where to play, and my Tianjiu doesn't know what to do."

    "Don't be mad!"

    Chanyi spreads her hands: "Don't say anything else, in such a hot weather, you and Huayin sister are planning to go to Zhuangzi outside the city to escape the summer, so I stay in Chang'an to be hot. You can talk to me again. Tian Jiao, I really ignore you."

    Lu Wan pushed her arm and said, "It's not our fault, when the late emperor was there, he would take us to escape the heat outside the city every summer. If we could go to escape the heat, we would naturally After all, the Qingliang Palace is cool and interesting. However, this year, you don’t have to think about it.”

    "Why?"

    "Why?" Lu Wan winked in the direction of Xuanzheng Hall, and Chanyi suddenly realized. Also, with Xiao Ze's character, how could he propose to escape the summer heat? He must be able to survive and must stay in Chang'an so that he can handle government affairs.

    "My aunt and several aunts have mentioned a few words to the Queen Mother a few days ago. The Queen Mother said that she has mentioned it to Her Majesty these days. I don't know if Her Majesty can agree."

     "But I don't think there's any hope for this, so let me prepare more ice cubes, or my mother and I will go to escape the summer, and let my father and brother stay in Chang'an." Loyalty, decisively abandoned his father and brother, ready to pack up and go to escape the summer with her aunt.

    Chan Yi nodded solemnly: "I think this matter is hanging."

    She accompanied Lu Wan and sighed for a while, when Hua Yin heard a smile and turned her head: "Why don't you ask your majesty in Chanyi, I heard that your majesty treats you very well."

    Some time ago, His Majesty was very kind to the cousin who entered the palace to accompany his aunt. The powerful people in Chang'an City heard about it, not to mention several princes and princesses.

    Everyone's attitude is either contemptuous or thoughtful. A few days ago, Chanyi met several princesses and eldest princesses in Xuanhui Hall, and they all treated her well and gave her a greeting. Among them, Huayin's mother, Princess An, and Lu Wan's mother, Princess Deqing, gave a very important meeting ceremony. Chanyi knew that they were looking for her daughter's sake.

    "Sister Huayin, don't talk nonsense, Your Majesty and I have nothing, and Your Majesty is busy at this time, I haven't even seen a figure!" That day, there was an embarrassment in front of him, After twisting his neck, he was just lucky that he didn't have to see Xiao Ze! Where will they be sent to the door stupidly?

    "I didn't say anything about you and Your Majesty." Hua Yin propped his chin.

    "Are you... not asking yourself?"

    Chanyi blushed and said, "No!"

    She remembered the good smell of sandalwood when he approached her that night.

    "Okay, Huayin, don't make fun of Chanyi." Nanxiang came out in time to save the siege. While speaking, she was actually looking at Chanyi secretly.

    To tell the truth, she is precious as a princess, but in the palace there is no wanton favor from this second lady of the Meng family. Empress Dowager Meng's own niece is enough for her to be bullied by no one in the palace. What's more, his own royal brother, Daliang Zunhui's incomparable emperor, treats her very unusually, even better than his own sister.

    Naturally, this does not mean that the royal brother treats her badly. When the father was alive, two or three were sent to the barbarian land to live with their aunts when they were young, and they lived a very hard life. When it came to my own generation of princesses, the Qiang messenger came to ask for marriage the year before, but was rejected by the emperor's brother against all odds.

    Brother Huang is a good emperor, and the second lady of the Meng family is really lucky to be treated differently by the elder brother.

    There are many in Chongwen Museum who have the same idea as Princess Nanxiang. But more, it is watching the play.

    Although Chanyi didn't take their words to escape the summer to the bottom of her heart, she noticed the field vacation. Even if you can't stay at home for two months of field leave, you can find a way to grind for more than half a month. Thinking about it, she immediately packed the cloth bag after school, and after saying goodbye to Huayin Luwan and others, she asked Nanxiang to leave first.

    After the others left, she slowly walked towards Xuanzheng Hall with her little cloth pocket.

    No matter how important face is, it is not as important as going home. After thinking about it for half an afternoon, Chanyi is still going to see Xiao Ze.

    From a distance, Sun Ming, who was standing at the door, saw the figure, and went up to greet him. He asked with a smile, "Why is the little lady free today?"

    Chan Yi said: "I have something to look for Your Majesty, would you please let Eunuch Sun inform me?"

    Sun Ming is a little confused: "Your Majesty and a few adults are discussing important matters, I'm afraid it won't be over in a while, should the little lady wait first?"

    "Ah? Has Your Majesty been busy these days?" Chanyi tiptoed to look at the door and asked back.

    If someone else asked this question, Sun Ming would definitely not answer. There is no other reason, it is a big sin to peep at the whereabouts of His Majesty. However, knowing that his Majesty treats the little lady's particularity, he did not hide it at all: "In the past few days, His Majesty has been worrying about the accounts of the national treasury, and he has to summon several officials of the Ministry of households every day, and a group of people hold it all day long. The abacus is in front of His Majesty, and there are still more than half of it left! The Ministry of Households has been busy recently."

    Chanyi didn't expect Sun Ming to tell her so much, she was speechless for a while: "...this"

    "The slave said this to you, others wouldn't." Sun Ming saw her hesitation and explained.

    Chan Yi nodded, it was difficult to continue the topic, so she had to say: "Since Your Majesty is busy, then I will go back first, I will come again when I am not busy."

    Anyway, there is still one month left before the field holiday!

    "If you have something to do, you might as well tell the servant. When His Majesty is done, I will pass it on on your behalf."

    Chan Yi squeezed the purse around her waist and said, "It's a small matter, you can do it at any time, or don't disturb Your Majesty, I'll go back to Xuanhui Hall first."

    Sun Ming did not reluctant to see this, but just remembered that Chanyi came, and after a while, His Majesty was busy, and went to report to His Majesty.

    In the Xuanzheng Hall, a group of household officials were wiping their sweat, and their fingers quickly turned the abacus. There were two booklets in front of everyone. turn a page.

    There was an ice basin in the hall, but there was still a thick layer of sweat on their backs. The reason is that there is a cold-faced His Majesty the Emperor sitting directly above.

    Young Master Lu Chuan, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was sitting next to Xiao Ze, holding two booklets in his hand, frowning back and forth for comparison.

    The two booklets, one is the booklet after the new inventory, and the other is the booklet of the treasury in and out. Obviously, the two brochures do not match.

    "Silver taels are missing by one million, grains by 500,000 stones, precious and precious utensils and other items are missing by tens of thousands." Lu Chuan reported with a sullen face.

    "Presumptuous!" Xiao Ze slapped heavily on the desk.

    The officials sitting below are shaking.

      There is no record."

    Xiao Ze's eyes froze, and his tone was cold: "Find some more people and settle the account as soon as possible. Also, let Dali Temple give me a thorough investigation!"

    "Yes." Lu Chuan bowed and bowed.

    On that day, the news that His Majesty expressed his power in the Xuanzheng Hall spread among the officials of Chang'an.

    Whether it is a noble family or a royal family, they are a little panicked. It is not a matter of one or two days for them to borrow something and not return it. Many times the emperor knew it, but he just turned a blind eye. As for those silver taels and grains, it is not too much, and it is not much for each family to spread out. Everyone sees that you didn't get caught, so I'll get some too, so the national treasury is short of one million taels of silver and grain.

    Who knows, Cindy will not think about it, go and investigate this matter thoroughly!

    After the officials who stayed in Xuanzheng Hall to check the accounts left, Lu Chuan came back.

    "It didn't go well, the account books brought back by the scouts from the northern Hebei were incomplete, and Feng Jishen did a good job of keeping people accountable, so it was difficult to find out the problem, if it wasn't for the dark guards in the northern Hebei to find out The news, we don't know at all, Feng Jishen actually deducted the salaries of the frontier soldiers."

      ."

    "Slowly investigate, this time I want to wipe out all these corrupt officials."

    Lu Chuan said: "Yes."

    "However, we don't have enough manpower, there are too many accounts, and the people in the Ministry of Household are checking the accounts of the national treasury. If they can't help, there are many fewer people available."

    Xiao Ze pondered for a while, and said, "I have come to think of this matter, you go down first!"

    Lu Chuan responded and prepared to leave. Suddenly thinking of something, he said, "I remember that last year at the Dongshi Bookstore, I met a young lady and a few students from the Imperial College. They were all good at arithmetic. Does Your Majesty still remember?"

    This matter, Xiao Ze naturally remembers, and knows that the little lady is Chanyi.

    "I thought, could I ask those students from Guozijian to help?" Lu Chuan asked.

      Check the accounts, but in fact it is to check the accounts of Jibei. When the time comes, let people make a new copy, so that people can't realize that it is Jibei's accounts. "

    Xiao Ze said: "Let Zhao Si handle this matter."

    After Lu Chuan left, it was late at night. Xiao Ze approved another memorial, and saw Sun Ming come in and report: "Your Majesty, in the afternoon, Mrs. Meng came over, but I heard that you were busy, so I left first."

      little lady.

    "The servant asked the little lady, but the little lady didn't say anything, only said it wasn't a big deal." Sun Ming answered cautiously.

    The hall fell into silence again, and Xiao Ze's fingers tapped on the table unconsciously. The candlelight made a sound of chi chi, and his tall shadow swayed.

    When Sun Ming thought that Xiao Ze would not answer, he suddenly stood up and said, "Go to Xuanhui Hall."

    Sun Ming thought he had heard it wrong, it was so late, Your Majesty went to Xuanhui Hall, Yu Li is not in harmony! Even if you are the emperor, you can do whatever you want.

    But at this time, Xiao Ze's back had already walked out the door, so Sun Ming had to keep up.

    Xiao Ze refused the palace servants to follow him, but took only Sun Ming to the outside of Xuanhui Hall.

    When Xiao Ze walked around the Xuanhui Hall and reached the Taolin in the back, Sun Ming realized what his Majesty was thinking. It turned out that he had plans to become a gentleman on the beam again.

    "Waiting for me here." After Xiao Ze dropped this sentence, he jumped up to the top of the wall and jumped into the wall.

    "Your Majesty, be careful!" Sun Ming worried.

    Xiao Ze did not answer her, at this time, he had come to Chanyi's window.

    Because of the hot weather, Chanyi did not close the window tightly, he easily pushed it open, and then jumped in.

    The lamp was still lit in the house, indicating that she had not slept yet, but he glanced around and found no figure of her. Not even the two palace maids were seen.

    The room was extremely quiet, except for the shadow of the dancing candle and the sound of his own breathing.

    At this moment, the room suddenly thumped, as if something fell to the ground.

    Xiao Ze frowned and walked slowly to the inner room.

    Into the inner room, there is still no one inside, but there is the sound of water splashing behind the screen.

    I saw that the woman behind the screen slowly stepped out of the tub, the sound of water rushing, and Miaoman's body was looming.

    Next, she reached for the clothes.

    "Ah!"

    Chanyi was extremely regretful at this moment. She didn't wash her well when she took a bath, but instead played with water there, causing water to flow all over the ground. In a hurry, her foot slipped as soon as she stepped on it, unable to control her body, and fell to the ground.

    "Be careful!" The man's calm voice sounded, and Chanyi's head went blank.

    Why, is there a man's voice in her room?

    But she didn't have time to think about these questions, nor did she notice that the owner of the voice belonged to Xiao Ze, so she was already lying on the ground.

    "Where did you fall?" Xiao Ze swept in like a tornado.

    Chanyi: "..." I really want to scream.

    She quickly covered her chest and bottom, her face flushed, and she stammered: "You...you...you go out!"

    Rogue!

    The moment Xiao Ze came in, he could see everything clearly, and when he saw her protecting his chest, he quickly staggered his eyes, affected by the clothes, and stuttered: "I... I didn't see you... can you get up?"

    At this moment, the face of the young emperor was full of blush. The cold and alienated color was swept away, replaced by panic.

    "..." Shut up!

    Chan Yi closed her eyes in despair.

    "You go out." She was full of shame and indignation, and her voice became louder involuntarily.

    "Okay." Xiao Ze quickly turned around and walked out.

    Because his mind was completely attracted by the scene he just saw, the pink and tender dogwood was deeply imprinted in his mind, he didn't even know what he was doing, and when he walked out, he actually Same hands and feet.

    Chanyi looked at his back and couldn't hold back: "Your Majesty, you are on the same hand..."

    Xiao Ze heard the words, paused, and quickly walked outside.

    The author has something to say: Xiao Ze: So exciting.

    I wrote three thousand, but for everyone's Qixi welfare, I still write tomorrow's content to today. Happy Qixi Festival, little fairies, the first 100 red envelopes will be distributed tonight!

    The update time for tomorrow night is still this time
